What reviewers say
“Purchased from the cellar door on a cool morning many years ago and gently ageing in the cellar, this is the wine to have on a cool London weekend. Garnet/ruby coloured this has a powerful and distinctive nose of barnyard/mushroom and cheese.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
This wine has a really fruity powerful nose, which mixes greedy red and black fruit aromas and woody notes. But it is on the palate that it shows its full potential, where it is powerful and fleshy with flavours of raspberry and other very ripe red fruits, almost as if we were biting into them. Its structure is powerful, with velvety tannins and a very long and fruity finish.
Faiveley Mercurey La Framboisière is a French red from Mercurey. The grape is Pinot Noir.
1,133 other reds from France form the cohort it is ranked inside. The calibrated figure is built from 1,468 reviewers whose rating history varies enough to place their own average. A broader pool of 1,502 reviewers with two or more ratings feeds the raw-average track instead.
How the score was built
We compare the reviewers of this bottle against every other wine those same people reviewed. Each review is scored relative to the reviewer's own baseline — four stars from someone who hands out fives means something very different from four stars from someone who rarely goes above three. Every reviewer then counts the same, so the result is a calibrated consensus rather than a star average.
- Global percentile
- Where Faiveley Mercurey La Framboisière lands against every wine we rank.
- In-cohort percentile
- The same comparison narrowed to its cohort — wines of the same type from the same country. A Chilean red is judged against Chilean reds, not against Champagne. Ranked against Red · France (1,134 wines).
- AI-adjusted percentile
- The same reviewer-normalized score, corrected for how much confidence the sample supports: thin samples are pulled toward the corpus average. Each wine keeps the share n / (n + 53) of its measured distance from the average, where n is its calibrated-reviewer count, and the result is ranked on the same scale as the global percentile.53 is the median sample size across everything we rank. Here n is 1,468.
